All tag results for granuloma

Hmm… we wonder if John Mayer's rumored split from Katy Perry has anything to do with his decision to go on a musical walkabout across the Americas?! Or maybe it was the reason the pair called it quits in the first place!!

The bluesy crooner has announced that he will embark on his first MAJOR tour since finding out about a nasty, career-effecting throat granuloma almost three years ago!!

Back in February, John revealed that he was planning on doing a small, 18-stop deal, but it seems he needs to stretch his peen legs, as he's turned his "spring tour" into a fully fledged, cross-continental extravaganza!

John's Born & Raised 40-stop musical explosion initially ignites at an already sold out show in Tuscaloosa, AL on April 25th and wraps October 5th at the Hollywood Bowl in LA!

And that's where he will propose to Katy Kat in front of EVERYONE after distance has made both of their hearts grow fonder…

LOLzz! In our dreamz!

Ch-ch-check out the FULL list of Johnny's tour dates …AFTER THE JUMP!!!

But woe to the world, cause a nasty throat problem called Granuloma has prevented Mayer from singing live for almost two years!

UNTIL NOW.

During a benefit concert held in honor of those firefighters who fought the raging Pine Creek wildfire last summer in Montana — a benefit that Mayer organized himself — Katy Perry's latest lover treated the audience to a VERY special presentation…

John Mayer was forced to postpone the release of his latest album, Born and Raised, after discovering a granuloma above his vocal cords, and took this blog yesterday to announce that he successfully underwent surgery to take care of the issue, and is now on complete vocal rest for the next month - and possibly longer!

John Mayer revealed yesterday that due to a throat condition, he's been forced to cancel not only his upcoming singing engagements, but also delay the release of his new album, Born and Raised!

He writes:

Hi everyone,

After several months of going week to week monitoring and hoping to correct the condition, I am forced to cancel my upcoming singing engagements due to something next to my vocal cords called a granuloma.

I’m bummed to have to bow out of both the iheartradio Music Festival in Las Vegas and an appearance with Tony Bennett in Los Angeles. I know there were people depending on me to be there and I’m sorry that I can’t be on those stages.

‘Born and Raised’ is complete as far as music recording, song selection, and in some cases mixing, but because of this condition I couldn’t finish singing on several of the tracks. This means the record will be released next year instead of this fall or winter.

This is a temporary setback, though I’m not sure how long or short a period of time it will be. I’ve got the best doctors in the country looking after me and I will be singing and touring again as soon as I get the all clear. Until then I’ll be spending time writing and composing more music and kicking an empty soup can around the West Village.

I’m looking forward to seeing you again soon. Until then take good care.

John

Poor thing!

These things do happen, sometimes, though, and we're sure your voice will be much better off in the long run if you take the time now to take care of yourself!
